Quote

Mother St. Urban was once asked by a visiting clergyman, “Where are your free beds for the poor?” She answered: “There are no wards or rooms where special beds are reserved for the poor. It would be a humiliation to the patients who are poor to have their poverty thus made known to others. Neither the doctors nor the nurses know that a certain patient is unable to pay…So far no bill has come to my office that I have been unable to pay.”

Mother Urban Tierney (1857-1933)

We are called by God and sent by the Church to reproduce in ourselves: Christ healing... Christ consoling... Christ always aware of the needs of others.
